BEWARE OF A NEW DENVER MATCHMAKING SERVICE

Bon Jour Matchmaking Service

I had a guy phone me for my service. He left a message and I needed to call him back, but before doing so I decided to do a background check. Regardless of what I find on that I always call people back out of courtesy, even when I know I’m going to decline to work with them.

What I found on the background check, although several years ago, was Rape, Sodomy, public intoxication, DUIs. The first 2 had been dismissed, but that may mean he had a good attorney. Obviously, I was going to decline to work with him.

So we were talking and he has used Kelleher and Associates who he paid $29,000 to, who claimed to have clients in Denver but didn’t. Then he hired Tawkify for $9,000 for 1 year. They also did nothing. So, with each he kept telling me that he could have done…

MICHELE, WHAT IS YOUR SUCCESS RATE?

Many times when someone new calls for Bon Jour Matchmaking, they ask what my success rate is.

According to my clients who have reached their goals, the fact that I am very discriminating who I accept to work with; the open-ended contract and the multitude of information on each client explains why so many singles have been successful in addition to the coaching.

BUT, in my opinion, in addition to the above, 50% of a client’s success is up to them. If they decline potential matches, are very narrow in their criteria and preferences as well as do not follow my advice and continue making the same mistakes over and over, that will affect a client’s success.

So, it is a partnership and collaboration that make a client successful in Bon Jour. Really much like many other things in life, it takes both parties.

They also did nothing. So, with each he kept telling me that he could have done a better job. He asked lots of questions about Bon Jour Matchmaking.

Then, when I declined him, he said that he is going to start his own matchmaking service in Denver and then he can write off those fees he paid the above services! WOW, I made the right decision not to work with him for many reasons!

I presume sometime in the next year this new service will present. Be careful, I don’t know whether he will run it or just be an investor as he is with many other businesses. But his background is very sketchy!

DO YOU WONDER WHAT COACHING I DO AND WHAT WILL CAUSE A PROFILE TO BE DROPPED?

Bon Jour Matchmaking Service

The email below clearly shows my coaching and a brand new client who hired me specifically for that, who clearly does not want a relationship either with me or my clients to be successful: (the names have been disguised to protect the innocent and that CLIENT)

Dear CLIENT,
I received the email above from K this morning. So…here is a list of all of the things you have, according to her that turned her off and put me off:

1. Sent the answers to the questions inside an email without the questions when told to attach it so it could be printed out and attached to your profile;
2. Sent the total opposite pictures of what I not only asked you to send, but showed you on the computer at the time of your interview. Got into a fight with me when I kept trying to explain what type of…

DIRECT AND HONEST or CHARISMATIC AND UNTRUSTWORTHY

Bon Jour Matchmaking Service

Which Do You Prefer?

Are you the type of person who falls for charm and charisma and lives to regret it?  Those charismatic charmers are often called scammers.  I have a relative who is very, very charismatic, however once he’s “got” you he’s like a snake and will bite you the minute you are off guard. Yes, they are wonderful to chat with but beware of doing business with them or getting romantically involved.

When you are doing business and making a financial investment whether it be with a financial advisor or a personal Matchmaker, is it more important to you that they have a “good bedside manner” even if they are not trustworthy?  There are many business owners like that in all categories of business who have left a trail of very pissed off people behind them.  In the long run the truth is the most important component regardless…

DENVER MEN, DO YOU LOOK LIKE THIS?

Bon Jour Matchmaking Service

Every day I receive calls at Bon Jour Matchmaking Service from single Denver men who exclaim they want beautiful, fit women to meet.  My question to you is do you look like Pierce Brosnan, Clive Owens or Hugh Jackman?  These are Hollywood’s sexiest men and not only because they are soooooo handsome but even more so because of who they’ve chosen to spend their lives with.  If you don’t look like any of these types of men, maybe you need to reassess the “beautiful model type” you are searching for.

These are long married and happy couples.  Not like the ones choosing only models who play musical wives.  And have you noticed, you don’t hear about these men cheating on their wives like with men who were married to beautiful women like Halle Barry, Sandra Bullock, Tiger Woods’ ex-wife or Jennifer Aniston and yes, even Christie Brinkley, etc.   Which…

DENVER MATCHMAKING SERVICES FAIL

Bon Jour Matchmaking Service

The failure of some Denver Dating/Matchmaking Services continues to present itself to me through clients who have fallen for a slick sales pitch.  According to my clients who have used certain other local Denver dating or Denver matchmaking services, following are things to BEWARE of:

1. Interviews you in a public forum, i.e. a noisy and crowded coffee-house or at a hotel or restaurant;

2. Charges thousands of dollars to join for a limited time;

3. Sells you a certain number of dates;

4. Does not SHOW you profiles WITH pictures of prospective matches or a background check (that they may have charged extra for);

5. Has a lot of negative reviews online;

6. Has a poor rating with the BBB of Denver;

7. Charges one sex nothing and the other sex too much;

8. Just started their business and has no track record or clients (that may be why…

I DEAL IN REALITY

Bon Jour Matchmaking Service

This service deals in honesty and reality.  If you are calling to hear someone only confirm what you think, this is probably not the service for you.  I accept or reject clients both according to the preferences and criteria of my clients and whether your goal lines up with my clientele and you understand my structure and philosophy.

A woman called this morning and when I asked her age (63) she right away said I DO NOT WANT TO MEET MEN THAT AGE.  I LOOK GREAT AND THEY WOULD NEVER KNOW MY AGE!  My answer is…first of all I’m not accepting women over 55 at the moment because men in that age range often want to date younger women so they are not going to go up to 63 regardless of what you look like.  She then proceeded to tell me how superficial my men are after just declaring the…

WHY HER CLIENTS LOVE MICHELE FIELDS, DENVER’S MOST ESTABLISHED PROFESSIONAL MATCHMAKER

Bon Jour Matchmaking Service

Do you want the truth?  I’ll tell you the truth.  How else can you correct mistakes, fix misconceptions and get the inside scoop unless you work with a well established Denver Matchmaker?  For 34 years I have been facilitating matches in collaboration with my clients and have stepped in when necessary to bridge gaps in communication.

If you feel like you’ve been making dating mistakes but cannot figure out what they are, as your Matchmaker I give clients feedback as to what my clients like and dislike, feedback on something(s) that may have turned the other person off when they first met.  During the interview and profile viewing, feedback on being too narrow or even too open is shared with each client.  Zeroing in on who you want and how you need to present yourself to make a successful partnership/marriage.

I have a client who used to be focused on…

FAVORITE DENVER MATCHMAKER SINCE 1989

As a veteran matchmaker I do not consider matchmaking a numbers game.  You will never see me sell a certain number of matches for an unreasonably excessive fee with no profile or photos to assist you in your selection.  As your matchmaker I offer clients as many matches as they feel are the best fit with an open-ended contract

I also disagree with the “It’s Just Lunch” premise in that I specifically advise my clients NOT to meet during a workday at lunch.  There are several reasons for this…if you are having a bad day at work, you sometimes can’t turn that off to be charming for the lunch hour.  You may be preoccupied with what’s going on back at the office, tracking the time so that you don’t return back to work late and business attire is normally not very flattering for women.  I have come to many conclusions about the BEST way to make a match successful after being in this business for 34 years!

During the one-on-one privately conducted interview I gather information in-between the questions as we discuss your desires, preferences and background.  There are no computers, no testing, no videos and no socials involved in the process.  No client is ever left alone to read a profile and perhaps jump to the wrong conclusions by something they misread.  I am there at all times to redirect, correct and clarify the information presented about each client.  Although matchmaking and dating service terms are used interchangeably there is a clear distinction between the two When you phone Bon Jour Matchmaking for information this is merely an exchange of information on both sides to see whether it is a fit.  I never meet with a prospect to “size them up” and give them the “hard sell”. 

After 34 years this Matchmaker is adept at discerning in an extended phone consultation whether this is the appropriate service structure for a prospect, whether that person will fit in with the rest of the clientele and whether they fit the majority of the criteria that my exclusive clientele expects.  Not all prospects who call about the service are a good fit and I have no problem saving a person money who might not be appropriate for the service.  Yes, I am an ethical Matchmaker.  The bottom line is not money, it is assisting professionals in attaining their romantic goals in the best way for them.

Developed in 1989 I am a matchmaker who not only puts introductions together, but also goes the extra mile to give every match the best chance it has to succeed by straightening out any miscommunications, misinterpretations and other complications that may impede the success of a potential relationship.  

All interviews are conducted privately in my home office, not in a public forum such as Starbucks like several other local services.  I respect each client’s reasonable expectation of privacy and will never do an interview in a public forum.

This unique structure has had a 70% success rate! Bon Jour Matchmaking Service is the original matchmaker for the Front Range since 1989!
